Would be interesting if we could choose to be a real evil dude.
Penance-schmenance. Let em all go, recruit them, let the mayhem begin. Corypheus ain't got nothing on me. He still has his training wheels on.
Here comes the Spanish Inquisition! Join us or die. Tevinter should follow the examples of the Inquisition.
Reign of terror across the land.
Why do we always have to be some goody twoshoes?
Blackball would be my beeyotch.
I'd LOVE to be evil with real evil companions! Heck, I want a real slaver for a Tevinter Magister, a real assassin instead of a party planner, and some gritty girl with issues, like Jack.
Blackwall, with his guilt and "my lady, I'm a good man, sorry for leavin' you in a barn nekkid?" Doesn't cut it.
First time I send him to the wardens , but he grew on me so now on my main playthrough he is a free man.
I still feel like strangling him after the revelation though , I imagine it would take time for my Lavellan and him to be good friends again.
Now I backpedaled on the wardens because they are not how he pictures them.They are corrupted just like any group , and it's getting worse as years go by...they're kinda desperate because they're not as popular as they used to be.
So for the time being , Blackwall stays with the Inquisition , if he still wants to be a warden after this well...he's free to do it.
So what would you suggest your options be when you discover who he is? There's no real reason why the Inquisitor must absolutely commit to dealing with Ranier further.
Dunno. Certainly can't be as simple as the Inquisitor being given total authority of his fate.
Maybe something along the lines of him returned to the Inquisition but remaining an official prisoner of Orlais and the clear condition that he is to return to prison once his service is complete.

Sure, if it's an option, but his simply being returned to the Inquisition should not automatically happen. The option to simply wash your hands of Rainier and leave him to the Orlesians is actually a very sensible option. You can't take that option away just because it's more dramatic for something else to happen.
Did he actually use the word hate? I've ever chosen this spec before, but the only dialogue I know of is the one where he suggests that the Inquisitor might sleep with corpses.
It sounded like it, if not that it's "I don't like you" etc. Blackwall was a dick before those conversation however, and I only chose Necromancy because of the utility it has in battle >.>. Apparently the leader of the Inquisition cannot think like a leader should and instead be this goody-too-shoes, good for nothing to keep losers like Blackwall happy.
Every choice does mandate some sort of penance. The only difference is who decides the form the penance will take.
- Leave Blackwall in prison: Orlesian courts decide.
- Force him to continue living the lie: he's indentured to the Inquisition.
- Allow him to join the Wardens as Warden Constable Blackwall intended: he undergoes the Joining and will serve as a Warden until he dies.
- Allow him to live as Thom Rainier: he devotes his life to atonement.
Yeah I usually send him to the Wardens personallyI think spending your life fighting darkspawn is harsh enough punishment. Plus a lot of criminals and thugs aer usually sent into the deep roads with them as punishment anyway.
There should have been a gibbet option.
Absolutely. I was so pissed the first time I found out, totally betrayed. He would have been beheaded if it was an option.

Yeah while I was surprised to learn about his identity much like my Quizzy was but he had proven very useful to the Inquisition up until that point I decided that I couldn't just let him rot and given he sounded like he wanted to be a GW and deep down I think he wanted to be a good man too just made some very bad choices which led to his situation even though he wasn't a GW at the time it made my Quizzy's decisiion to spare him on that occasion easier tbh. Which was why I said at his trial that once his work with the Inquisition was done I'd hand him over to the Wardens to join their ranks. Especially given the punishment they had taken over the past decade what with first the Fereldan Blight and then everythinmg that happened at Adamant and the Inquisition story. They definitely needed their numbers brought back up
My Inquisitor was shocked and saddened to learn the truth about Blackwall, and it took her awhile to trust him again, but ultimately she decided that he was trying to do the right thing now and was doing enough to atone on his own without her throwing more conditions at him, so she gave him his freedom.
In my first game I was surprised and pissed off at what he had done. But I had to keep him because I had him built up as one of my primary tanks. Otherwise betrayal = suffering most foul.
I give him to the Wardens. They conscripted him to begin with, so they have the obvious claim.

I love that most of us used this same justification. He's a bastard, he should have been killed, but dammit he was my tank so I let him stay ![]()

Yeah that's the role he fills in mine as well although to be fair Iron Bull makes a good tank as well so I tend to switch between the 2 when it comes to who I'm using as my tank. When it comes to the dragons I usually take Bull but for everything else I usually switch.

Absolutely, taking Bull for dragons is a must. He and Sera nearly wet themselves with joy.

Statement: It has been done.
Praise: TariVendice at Nexusmods has done us all a great service. Now we can shave the False Warden, a fate worse than death for many meatbags.

I've personally pardoned Blackwall most of the time. It was only on my last Inquisitor that I decided to conscript him for the title unlock in the Dragon Age Keep.
Pardoned him pretty much all the time.
It's hypocritical to accept leliana, zevran, sten, morrigan and the rest of your companions who are murderers and then kill blackwall. Takes absolutely no self awareness.
Blackwall ain't all bad. He feels regret for what he did and wants justice to be done.
Compared to Scumbag Solas, Blackwall is a saint.
I'm calling bullshit until we find out Solas killed children as well.
FINISH HIM.
FATALITY.
FLAWLESS VICTORY.
Statement: Mods suck.
Objection: They do not. Modification allows for both improved function and increased re-playability. What the Masters build has a wonderful design, it is true. But even they are incapable of perfection. Their limited resources and time necessitate the involvement of other organics to complete tasks that, if left only to the Masters, would never occur.
Stipulation: Multiplayer mods, however, have no place in a self-respecting gamer. It is an insult to one's own programming and processors.
I hope that in the Trespasser DLC you'll get a penalty for not punishing Black Wall. I let him off the hook through-out all of my game-plays, but I feel like it's all too easy somehow ![]()
